Get the chewables. I cannot swallow pills at all b/c I have huge tonsils (gross I know). If you cannot find chewable pre-nats, then get 800m of Folic acid and take with regular vitamins until you can get a script from your OB.

I take the Target ones, and I supplement the Omega 3 (I use Nordic Naturals "Burst of Lemon")-- among other things that I personally need to take.

The Target ones are not big-- and you only need one a day.

JackassChat Icon Men suck. He is probably the first one to whine and stay in bed when he has the sniffles.

Nope, I took them in the beginning (the gummies) with a sublingual Folic supplement. I could not hack anything else with the wicked-bad m/s I had.

Mine are huge also. I started taking them with a banana so it would slide right down. Once I got used to taking them that way, I was able to take them with just water.
